So, what’s changing? The most popular Standard plan (without ads) is going up by £2 , making it £12.99 per month now. If you’re on the Premium plan , it’s increasing by £1 , bringing it to £18.99 per month . Even the cheapest ad-supported plan isn’t spared—it’s going up by £1 , now costing £5.99 per month .
And if you’re someone who shares their account with others by paying for extra members, you’re also getting hit with a price increase. Adding an extra member to a Standard plan will now cost £5.99 , up from £4.99 . The extra member fee on the ad-supported plan is also increasing to £4.99 .
Netflix justifies these hikes by saying they’re reinvesting in content and improving the platform. They’ve been heavily investing in live sports , like NFL games, WWE, and high-profile boxing matches. Plus, they recently reported record-breaking 300 million global subscribers , partly thanks to cracking down on password sharing.
But here’s the real question—how much is too much? Streaming services across the board—Disney+, Spotify, Paramount+—are all raising their prices. Netflix is still the leader, but at what point do customers say, “Enough is enough”?
While price hikes are expected, Netflix needs to be careful. People are already juggling multiple subscriptions, and if costs keep rising, some might decide to cancel. Let’s see how this plays out, but for now, be prepared for a slightly higher Netflix bill next month!
